Lingering Clouds

Clouds stay with us tonight and a stray shower remains possible early this evening. Temperatures will be cooler than the weekend thanks to cloud cover and a light easterly upslope wind flow into the Foothills. Perhaps the wettest period of the week will be later Wednesday into Thursday. Friday looks drier and warmer.

Forecast Discussion

A weak backdoor front has slipped south of the area today placing the Foothills in a light easterly wind flow. This set up keeps cloud cover around tonight with cooler temperatures. A few showers are possible during the early evening and die out completely by dusk.

Expect more of the same for Tuesday. A disturbance over Florida will lift northward along the Southeast Coast during the Wednesday-Thursday timeframe. This will promote a wetter period for western North Carolina.

Friday looks drier, warmer and with more sunshine. A cold front approaching from the northwest will provide more scattered showers and thunderstorms on Saturday, before a drier and somewhat cooler air mass arrives for the end of next weekend.
